Well, looks like I was right on my hunch about the
def file. Seems to me that dmc defaults to 32bit
linking if no memory model is specified, however if
using a def file, if EXETYPE is not specified win 3.11
code is assumed. Adding "EXETYPE nt" fixed (one of)
my problems.

Now when I run the created executable I get an error
message: Application failed to initialize properly(0xc0000005).
Looks like it's to figure out this one now.. :-/

Yeah, there are some tweaks the IDDE would prevent you from... For one, it would create the .DEF file for you with all the necessary lines in it... ;-)

What kind of application (MFC, Win32-API, ???) are you trying to
build?
